2. A Heat Mat is a a flat sheet, currently made of aluminium, which transfers heat/energy
very quickly and very efficiently.
Flint Engineering holds several patents filed around the technology and its
applications.
This heat mat is novel and ground-breaking in several ways with the potential for it’s
very high thermal transfer properties combined with low cost manufacturing making it
suitable for multiple, varied applications. properties with multiple application
What is a ’Heat Mat’ ?

3. • Buildings materials; the heat mat can
be the outer skin delivering natural
heat to the building
• Housing both high end and
social
• Commercial buildings with a
heat requirement
• Transport
• Temperature stabilisation of
components electric battery's
• Providing cabin heating and
cooling
• Refrigeration
• Replace stainless shelving to
reduce the running costs of
both display fridges and
freezers
The heat mat technology has potential to bring energy reduction solutions to many
markets. We are currently working on:
Immediate Applications

4. • Potential to overcome
aesthetic and season
challenges with PV /
Solar thermal
• Potential to provide
structural strength

5. Commercial Refrigeration
• Replacing stainless
shelves with heat mat
shelves achieves energy
savings in excess of 20%
• Retrofit market alone
worth £1billion
• Flint in discussion with
major supermarkets and
other food retailers in the
UK and internationally

6. Automotive battery
Flint are currently researching this under two Innovate
UK Faraday challenge projects with a total grant value of £1m
 Removes heat thereby
reducing the risk of
overheating and risk of fire
when charging and under load
 Eradicates hot-spots on
separate cells
 Increase longevity because of
temperature stabilisation
 Increases potential energy
density

7. Financial Opportunity and
Additional Applications
Existing UK market opportunities in excess of £20B per year
Global market over 100 times the UK
Other potential applications;
 Radiators for building temperature control
 Cryogenic and medical refrigeration give stable storage and fast chilling
 Zonal temperature control in catering
 Rapid chillers for commercial ‘event’ applications
 Cold store construction
 Server farm temperature control

8.  Business models being created to licence the Flint technology
 Already talking to 4 global partners
 Research & Developments
• Working on electric vehicles and applications reducing carcinogens in fast food
applications
• Considering investment to widen scope of activities
